Red Atrial

Oh yeah will be a wild one. Can wait to try SPON. Especially the fruited ones that are coming out later.

 

Red Atrial pouring at the Funk fest in Charlotte currently.

 

Correct, it is my opinion. It is also my opinion that the Angels are very one note and that note is sour. Very little if any funk and overly sour to me. I understand and accept that others may appreciate ww sours more than me, but there are also many people that agree with me in the community. As another poster said, BA and Untappd are not the end all be all of beer rankings, and are not consistent because of Homer bias, distribution, "hads" etc. I understand that you love red angel, and I don't dislike it. I just don't like it enough to have it as my profile photo.

 

I just uploaded the only beer related photo I had on my PC. More than many just happen disagree with your opinion however.

 

I thought it was good, but not great. Red Angel and Atrial are better by themselves.

Speaking of not great...La Mure Morte. Yikes.

 

Oh no. What wasn't good about La Mure? I would think a blackberry sour would be friggen delicious.

 

Well, I'd like to give it a second try by itself, but it was extremely watery, thin, not funky, and just tasted too young. When surrounded by so many other great beers, it wasn't really worth finishing. The other people I was with shared my sentiment. I was sad as I was expecting much better. It's no Framboos or Kiwi, that's for sure.

 

I would agree about La Mure, my group was extremely disappointed with it compared to the rest of the beers available.

I thought Red Atrial was better than Red Angel (can't comment on Atrial since I've never had it).

 

Daaaaannnnngg. That's a huge let down. I love blackberry beers so much. Nocturn from JK is one of my fav.

 

So Walt was at JK Sunday and brought 7-8 beers on tap with him.

My buddy who was there got the impression from talking to Walt and Jeff that Jeff may be coming this Saturday. I'm hoping he brings some JK beers with him.

 

Here is hoping to see some SPON then!

 

Any speculation on the "special beers on tap"?

 

Sorry to pile on your question and apologies if I missed it, but does anyone know if they'll have Red Atrial itself on tap as well? It looks like they did at the Jester King release, but haven't seen confirmation that it will be on tap at Wicked Weed on Saturday.

 

All signs point to yes. Jk had it. Enough that my buddy there got 3 pours.

 

Should be a fun morning. No JK beers though.

 

Does this mean no Red Atrial on tap? I'm a little disappointed by the tap list overall. Was hoping for some Jester King beers.

 

I think it will be. Same. Slightly disappointed. Will def have another pour Ad Idem though.

 

Red Atrial tasted like atrial with more fruit and a tad more wine barrel complexity. def second best wild ale at sourfest, behind ff blackberry still wild ale.

 

Red Atrial will be on tap. Confirmed by friend of a friend who works at WW.
